ROCHA4 1Instituto de Ecologı´a y Biodiversidad, Departamento de Ciencias Ecolo´gicas, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile; 2Departamento de Ecologı´a Costera, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Cato´lica de la Santı´sima Concepcio´n, Concepcio´n, Chile; 3Center for Advanced Studies in Ecology and Biodiversity; 4Departamento de Ecologı´a y Biologı´a Animal, Universidad de Vigo, Vigo, Espan˜a Abstract Cephalopods are increasingly acknowledged as an ecologically important group in Chilean ecosystems, but are also one of their less-known biogeographic components. Notably, this group is represented virtually exclusively by non-endemic species, although we hypothesized that their distribution over the coast should be constrained by similar physical determinants to those affecting endemic taxa. We thus present a first evaluation of the latitudinal patterns of diversity and distribution of cephalopod species in Chile, based on geographical data obtained from a review of the available literature. We constructed presenceÁabsence binary matrices of coastal and oceanic species in 20 latitudinal units (28), for then calculating the respective similarity matrices to obtain a distribution dendrogram using hierarchical cluster analysis (UPGM). The original binary matrices were resampled performing 1000 stochastic reassignments to calculating the 95th percentile as the criterion to identify significant clusters. Statistical comparisons between distributional groupings were performed using ANOSIM. We recorded 86 cephalopods in Chile, including oceanic (71) and coastal (15) species. Species richness showed two major breaks at 308 S and 428 S, and decreased toward higher latitudes. Cephalopod species showed well-defined endpoints of distribution within the Chilean coast, differentiating three main biogeographical units: northern (18Á308 S), central (30Á428 S) and southern (42Á568 S) areas. Biogeographical patterns of cephalopod species in Chile showed no particular difference with those already described for most Chilean taxa. The marked distribution breaks of cephalopods at 308 and 428 S suggest that external forcing and physical factors other than temperature gradients may strongly constrain their dispersal.

Yamashiro South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation 28 Aug 15 3rd Meeting of the Scientific Committee SC-03-17 Port Vila, Vanuatu, 28 September - 3 October 2015 Main biological and fishery aspects of the jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) in the Peruvian Humboldt Current System by Jorge Csirke, Ana Alegre, Juan Argüelles, Renato Guevara-Carrasco, Luís Mariátegui, Marceliano Segura, Ricardo Tafúr and Cármen Yamashiro Instituto del Mar del Perú (IMARPE), Chucuito, Callao, Perú Summary Jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) is found in high abundance along the whole Peruvian coast from 10 to more than 500 nm from the coast. Performs diel vertical migrations from 0 to more than 650 m depth, and regular inshore-offshore ontogenetic migrations and less regular latitudinal migrations of several hundred miles. Younger and/or smaller jumbo squids predominate in oceanic waters, while larger jumbo squids are more neritic. Maintains some reproductive activity all year round, with increased reproductive activity from July to February and peaks between October and January. Life span is usually one year, although some specimens can live up to two years. Slight differences in the age or size of sexual maturity and main distribution areas suggests that there are least three strains, groups or population subunits of jumbo squid inhabiting the Peruvian Humboldt Current System. Is a very aggressive predator and prey availability seems to be more important than temperature or other environmental parameters in shaping its geographic distribution.

  • Identification and Estimation of Size from the Beaks of 18 Species of Cephalopods from the Pacific Ocean
    17 NOAA Technical Report NMFS 17 Identification and Estimation of Size From the Beaks of 18 Species of Cephalopods From the Pacific Ocean Gary A. Wolff November 1984 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Marine Fisheries Service NOAA TECHNICAL REPORTS NMFS The major responsibilities of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) are to monitor and assess the abundance and geographic distribution of fishery resources, to understand and predict fluctuations in the quantity and distribution of these resources, and to establish levels for optimum use of the resources. NMFS is also charged with the development and implemen­ tation of policies for managing national fishing grounds, development and enforcement of domestic fisheries regulations, surveillance of foreign fishing off United States coastal waters, and the development and enforcement of international fishery agreements and policies. NMFS also assists the fishing industry through marketing service and economic analysis programs, and mortgage insurance and vessel construction subsidies. It collects, analyzes, and publishes statistics on various phases of the industry. The NOAA Technical Report NMFS series was established in 1983 to replace two subcategories of the Technical Reports series: "Special Scientific Report-Fisheries" and "Circular." The series contains the following types of reports: Scientific investigations that document long-term continuing programs of NMFS, intensive scientific reports on studies of restricted scope, papers on applied fishery problems, technical reports of general interest intended to aid conservation and management, reports that review in considerable detail and at a high technical level certain broad areas of research, and technical papers originating in economics studies and from management investigations.

Numbers of dusky sharks, Carcharhinus obscurus, in the Western North Atlantic have drastically declined over the past twenty years. Several fishery-dependent and fishery-independent studies have recorded the decline of this slow growing, late maturing, long-lived species. It is imperative for the survival of this species that we develop accurate demographic and biological parameter estimates to ensure proper management.
